You have a good idea, but don't count on them to make any difference..
Last night, Chrissy Matthews had on an Iraqi woman, who is down in Crawford with the pro-troops protestors...when she couldn't understand his questions, or didn't answer his questions fast enough...(remember she is Iraqi, and spoke English, but not perfectly)...he YELLED AT HER...He was insulting to her when she said that the Iraqi people appreciate America, and want our help...
He jumped down her throat on that comment, asking her HOW LONG she expects Americans to be over there spending OUR money and stuff...she said she didn't know..
and he said "yeah, that is the problem, no one know..and 10 years is way to long"...
Chrissy Boy is such a jerk. Too bad the Iraqi lady wasn't quick enough on the draw to ask him when we will stop spending money and bring American troops home from Bosnia, Kosovo, South Korea, Japan, Germany, etc. And since when has Chrissy cared about the American government spending money overseas, like the billions in aid given to Africa and the Palestinian Authority, most of which probably went directly into the bank accounts of assorted kleptocrats?
I'm delighted to know that only about a dozen people even bothered to watch little Chrissy having yet another hissy-fit! And many thanks to you for watching. That takes guts, LOL!

Uh...Chrissy...WHEN did we go to Bosnia? Kosovo? Don't we STILL have troops in Japan...60 years after the END of WW2? (Oh, that's right...that was a good war, because a Democrat started it.) Just damn...

I saw the portion of Hardball. As soon as Matthew's realized she didn't speak good English and had a hard time understanding his speedy slurry questions, he became condecending to her and treated her like a child.
His incessant questioning of her along the lines of "who are we fighting, how long is it going to last" was ignorant and cruel of him.
Fortunately, it was him who came out looking like a fool.
A few days later he had on Melanie Morgan on offsite Matthew's shill Gulf War 1 Veterans Paul Rieckhoff.
Rieckhoff's only point (false of course) was that Melanie and the other talk show hosts were softies that didn't leave the Green Zone and were fed propaganda from the Troops to which they talked.
When it was her turn, she refuted everything he said and then he started talking over her (naturally.)
The funny thing was when she started talking (in her time to talk) he yelled at her for talking over him! LOL, when HE was interrupting him. Chris naturally let him get away with it for a while.
Back to the Iraqi woman, again as you stated he asked her how long the war would last. She gave a good answer; that Iraq needed to be stabilized and their own Military needed to be ready. Of course that was when Chris said his 10 year statement. What a putz.

Matthews is so lame, he said KSFO is 570, when it is 560 radio SF.
